Chapter 18 Six, benefactor

Niu Tradition was saved by a rice cake seller. The man got him on a motorcycle and took him home.The yard of his house is huge, but the house is small. The only few pieces of furniture are also tattered, making him look very poor. He put Niu Tradition on the bed and covered him with a quilt. Niu Chuantong was so moved that he almost burst into tears.In the past few days, the people he met were all so terrifying, they were all plotting against him, and only this person in front of him was kind to him.He secretly swore: he must repay the person in front of him. He is his benefactor. Now, his benefactor is squatting in front of the door, smoking, and taking out a piece of money from time to time to look left and right.

It was a dollar bill. Niu Chuanchuan was moved again—his benefactor didn't sell rice cakes in order to save him.Today's income is only one dollar, so he must be worrying about tomorrow. The rain stopped, the wind started to blow again, and the minutes passed by. When it was getting dark, Niu Chuanchuan felt strength in his body. He struggled a bit, but he was able to move. He opened his mouth and let out a groan. His benefactor came over and asked, "Are you all right?" "No, it's fine." The benefactor turned and left. After a while, he came over with a piece of rice cake and a glass of water and said, "Let's eat something first."

While eating rice cakes, Niu Chuan burst into tears.No one cared so much about him in years. It's very rare for it to get dark at once. The benefactor did not turn on the light, he was ignored by the darkness. Niu Chuanchuan was a little frightened—it was so dark inside the box, as dark as if his eyes were closed.He thought, did the benefactor go to the yard to relieve himself? A long time passed, and the benefactor did not appear. A gust of wind blew by, and the door made a sound from a ghost story: "Squeak—ah——" Then, someone walked in.At this time, the house was completely invisible, and neither Niu Chuanli nor he could see each other.Was it his benefactor who entered?

Niu Traditional coughed dryly. The other party stopped and said, "What's wrong with you?" It was the benefactor's voice. Niu Chuantong heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Why don't you turn on the light?" "Oh, the light bulb didn't work, I just went out and bought one." After waiting for a while, the lights hadn't turned on, and the benefactor hadn't made a sound. Niu Chuanchuan coughed in embarrassment, and wanted to get out of bed to have a look.Gathering up some strength lying on the bed, he sat up all at once. His face collided with another's.

"Who?" Niu Tranquility asked in a trembling voice. Almost at the same time, a groan sounded—it was the benefactor's voice. Niu Tradition's heart twitched. In the darkness, he was lying on the edge of the bed, looking straight at himself, holding his breath, motionless, silent, his face was only a few centimeters away from him... "I wanted to see if you were asleep." Niu Chuanzhong didn't know whether he should believe this sentence or not.After a while of silence, he finally said, "Why don't you change the light bulb?" "It's too dark to see."

After a pause, Niu Chuanwen said again: "Don't you smoke? Where's the lighter?" He didn't even speak. Niu Tradition was very embarrassed in the dark, so he said bravely, "My surname is Niu, and my name is Niu Tradition. I'm not a bad person. Really, I used to supply raw meat to the zoo, but later..." "Do you know Sun Kong, Lao Yuan and Bai Jingjing?" the benefactor suddenly asked. Niu Chuanyuan was taken aback for a moment, and said, "I don't know." Suddenly the lights came on. He stood under the lamp, looked at him with a half-smile, and said, "My name is Yuan Tiangang." His expression was full of meaning.

Niu Chuanli slowly got out of bed and said, "Thank you for saving me. Don't worry, I will definitely repay you. Although I don't have any money now, in the future, I will have money in the future..." "Oh, no need." After finishing speaking, Yuan Tiangang squatted down in front of the door again, his expression suddenly became very strange, as if he was thinking about a terrible thing, but also seemed to be thinking about a very happy thing , cloudy and cloudy. In this small village, when it gets dark, there are no people outside, it is empty and dead silent. It was windy.

Niu traditionally stood by the bed, looking at the shadow on the wall.He was standing, with a long shadow; Yuan Tiangang was squatting, with a short shadow, like a baby in a mother's womb. The two shadows, one long and one short, did not move. There is some strange smell in the air, it is paper dust, which is very unlucky. Niu Chuantong observed Yuan Tiangang carefully.He was about thirty or so, or maybe only in his twenties, but he looked a little old.His face was long, a bit like a donkey, dark and expressive. After a while, he took out a crumpled pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and flicked it on the threshold, then took out an old-fashioned lighter, and started to light: "Crack, click, click..."

The lighter may be broken, but it still doesn't catch fire after being fired many times.He threw the lighter out in one go.The lighter seemed to hit something, and the sound spread far in the darkness. He stood up slowly and walked out slowly. Niu Tradition watched all this silently. Half an hour later, Yuan Tiangang came back, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and two cooked foods in his hand - pork head meat and spiced peanuts.And two bottles of wine. "Have a drink?" He greeted Niu Tradition. "...OK, drink some." He took out two large bowls and poured the wine, and the two bottles of wine just poured two large bowls.Niu Chuantong was a little worried, he didn't have that much capacity for alcohol.

Yuan Tiangang picked up the wine bowl and said, "Go one?" "Let's... drink slowly." "Okay, drink slowly." After finishing speaking, Yuan Tiangang put the wine bowl to his mouth, raised his head, and drank most of the bowl of wine. Niu Chuanyuan was dumbfounded: "Can I...slow down?" Yuan Tiangang looked at him, and suddenly asked, "Why were you put into a box?" Niu Chuanzhong was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, he was confused throughout the whole process.After a pause, he recounted what had happened.After finishing speaking, he let out a long breath, and it seemed that after he confided, the fear in his heart eased a little.

As he listened, the light in Yuan Tiangang's eyes lit up little by little. Although the blade-like light was hidden in his eyes, it was still very stinging. Niu traditionally lowered his head and sipped his drink. "Do you still want revenge?" Niu Chuantong raised his head, looked at Yuan Tiangang, hesitated and said, "I don't want to..." Yuan Tiangang looked at him closely and said, "You really don't want to?" "I dare not think about it." Niu Chuanzhong lowered his head again. Yuan Tiangang smiled and said, "Do you know where Zhu Neng is now?" "Where is he?" Niu Tradition asked. "Xitian Film and Television Resort." "What was he doing there?" "I don't know, but I can help you avenge." Niu Chuanyuan was stunned for a moment, and said, "How can I help?" Yuan Tiangang drank the wine in the bowl and said, "Call me first." "What call?" Yuan Tiangang murmured: "There is one thing that I have to figure out first..." After speaking, he took out an ugly and worn-out mobile phone, pressed a series of numbers, and handed it to Niu Traditional. "Who to call? What did I say?" "A neighbor, Lao Yuan, just say I invited him over for a drink." Niu Chuanchuan was a little surprised, but he still pressed the call button and put the phone to his ear. Yuan Tiangang looked at him nervously. Niu Chuanli looked at his phone and said, "I didn't get through." "The signal in the house is not good, go to the yard to make a call." A few tall trees outside the yard were densely packed with darkness, and a bird called, the voice was high and low, extremely strange: "Gumi—Gumi—Gumi——" Niu Chuanchuan asked timidly, "What bird is calling?" Yuan Tiangang looked around: "Owl." "I heard that if you hear an owl hooting at night, you will die..." "Call quickly." Niu Chuanli pressed the call button again, and after a while, a man's voice came from the phone: "Hello——" For a moment, Niu's traditional mind went blank—this was Zhu Neng's voice, and this was his enemy Zhu Neng's voice.After waiting for a while, he said word by word: "Let... you... run away..." The other party hung up the phone. "What's wrong?" Yuan Tiangang asked impatiently. Niu Chuanli stood there straight, expressionless: "It was Zhu Neng who answered the call." Obviously, Yuan Tiangang was also a little surprised. He looked around vigilantly and said, "It's all right, go to sleep. I will avenge you from tomorrow." Niu Chuanzhong felt that things were getting weirder. There was no man in a red raincoat standing in front of him, no fluffy hands touching him behind him, and no woman-like laughter from Zhu Neng could be heard... However, he just felt a little weird. What exactly is going on?Is it because of... the person in front of me?He forbade himself to think about it.The person in front of him is his benefactor, and he cannot be disrespectful to his benefactor. At this time, Yuan Tiangang entered the room slowly. Niu Tradition followed suit. The weird big bird flew up in surprise, and it circled over the yard, screaming "Gumi, Gumi" in frustration.
